WT Docket No. 12-70; ET Docket No. 10-142; WT Docket No. 04-356
WT Docket No. 12-357
On December 11, 2012, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) adopted a Report and Order and Order of Proposed Modification in WT Docket No. 12-70, ET Docket No. 10-142, and WT Docket No. 04-356 and a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in WT Docket No. 12-357.1 Commission staff is in the process of finalizing both documents, under ordinary editorial privileges, for public release.
By this Public Notice the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau hereby temporarily suspends the ex parteprocedures in the above captioned proceedings to prohibit all ex parte communications until the Report and Order and Order of Proposed Modification and Notice of Proposed Rulemaking have been publicly released. While we ordinarily do not prohibit ex parte communications for Commission items adopted on circulation, we believe this prohibition serves the public interest. Specifically, we believe that any further ex parte communications made prior to the public release of both items will likely be unnecessary given that the Commission has already adopted the items. Additionally, we believe that any ex parte communications prior to the public release of the items will likely be made on public speculation regarding the contents of the documents, and could therefore inject confusion or incorrect information into the records for each item. We take this action pursuant to our authority under Section 1.1200 of the Commission’s rules.2For further information, contact Brian Regan, Legal Advisor, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau at (202) 418-2849, or via email to Brian.Regan@fcc.gov[5].
By the Chief, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau.
